soundcheck: Destruction Unit - Sonic Pearl

There seems to be a creative resurgence in punk rock these days. For a while there was an absence of anything new and substantial. But there now seems to be an increase in new artists doing different things with the genre. There are some genres of music that blend better than others. For example, in most cases metal and rap have not mixed well. Of course, there are some (very) few exceptions–RATM being one of them. But the same could be said about psychedelic and punk. Not two genres you would imagine playing well together. Yet, Destruction Unit appears to be proving this assumption wrong.
